MOSCOW, Dec 19 (Reuters) – Russian President Vladimir Putin said on Friday he would look into the case of Laurent Vinatier, a French researcher jailed for violating Russia’s “foreign agent” laws.
Vinatier was sentenced in 2024 to three years in jail for failing to comply with laws requiring individuals deemed “foreign agents” to register and meet a number of stipulations.
